| #9 So it's not even 'climate change' anymore? Carbon reduction has been substituted. Where are the peer-reviewed studies showing how much carbon goes into a pound of sirloin? As for carbon reduction, I've done my part by planting and maintaining eleven all organic carbon-controlling organisms, formerly known as "trees". Plus bushes. And lawn grass. |

| #8 If I were a loyal apparatchik of the Los York City, with this hand I would work hook and crook to gain control of potential camp properties, especially hotels and start filling them with illegals. With the other hand I would keep them there, no need for dogs or night riders, just a database making sure that once assigned a room, they stay there. Set up a Company Store in what was the lobby, can charge to account with said ID. With established account individuals and families can spend into unrecoverable, generational debt (rent payments plus Company Store x high interest rate). They won't get kicked out, but they could never leave. Now you have these camps of people. Fed money comes in, Fed food comes in. Well we just take that 500lbs of Fed chicken because Carbon Tax. Sell that chicken to the UN neighborhood restaurants and other enclaves which can afford to pay the Carbon Tax. Also, ballot harvesting the camp, offering a bloc of votes to the highest.....philanthropist; that's it. Get your cut of the narcotics trade, black market sales. When it eventually burns or collapses, get that insurance money. Somebody somehow successfully sues that money comes out of general coffers not your French Laundry Account. Honestly, the only difference I see is the wall paper. |

| #7 “It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grammes a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be REDUCED to twenty grammes a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.” --George Orwell in 1984 |

| #6 Glad they've cleared up all the other problems with NYC before starting on stuff like this. |

| #4 Maybe they could track what the Bodegas and Quik-e mart gas stations are selling. |

| #3 Now if they can tie it back to the 'pooping on the sidewalk' data we can complete the full analysis. |

| #2 /\ Well yes, there are those obvious parallels, but I would be the very last to make such comparisons or suggestions. |

| #1 Carbon footprint, my ass. Food Rationing. Like those gangsters in Africa who run a refugee camp and actively hunt down and return those who escape, so they have larger numbers for UN food drop offs, so they have more product to profit from. Captives get the bare minimum. |
